AP Mode

5.1 Overview

This chapter discusses how to configure settings while your NBG-417N is set to AP Mode. Many screens that are available in Router Mode are not available in AP Mode.

Note: See Chapter 6 on page 55 for an example of setting up a wireless network in AP mode.

Use your NBG-417N as an AP if you already have a router or gateway on your network. In this mode your device bridges a wired network (LAN) and wireless LAN (WLAN) in the same subnet. See the figure below for an example.
